I just went over to double check.  The only files with years appended are

later don't have a year appended (just time of day)

Nothing unusual there.  Some files have always had a year, while others have
not.

Wrong.  It's UNIX.  It uses a date that provides a referent to the actual 
date.  It will drop time and include year when a file is old enough.  
But, it has not forgotten the time the file was created, and could tell 
you if you knew how to ask.
